This study was carried out to evaluate and determine the history, clinical presentation, and physical examination and laboratory findings in a pediatric (n=1) and adolescent (n=2) population with isolated tubal torsion (ITT) and to examine its surgical management. A retrospective review of all the cases of ITT treated in our hospital between January 2000 and December 2012 was performed. The dia...

A pure population of human Fallopian tubal epithelial cells has been isolated by enzyme digestion, grown in primary culture and used to explore the biochemical basis of oviduct fluid secretion. Confluence was achieved in 3-7 days. Immunocytochemical labelling for cytokeratins indicated that the cells were epithelial in nature and formed extensive desmosomal contacts, producing a polarized layer...

Background. Fallopian tube torsion is a rare cause of acute abdomen, occurring commonly in females of reproductive age. It lacks pathognomonic symptoms, signs, or imaging features, thus causing delay in surgical intervention. Case. We report two cases of isolated fallopian tube torsion in adolescent girls. In the first case a 19-year-old patient presented with acute pain in the left iliac regio...

In this paper, torsional behavior of asymmetric structures with fixed base and isolated base has been compared. Studied Structures are three-dimensional, three and eight story steel structures whose nonlinear time history analysis was conducted based on the records of El Centro earthquake (1940), Tabas earthquake (1978), and Bam earthquake (2003). Analysis results show the efficiency of seismic...

Background: Infertility, defined by the failure to achieve a clinical pregnancy after twelve months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. infertility is an important health problem in the society .tubal pathology is one of the main causes of infertility.it is estimated to account for 12-33%.hysterosalpingography is a method used for screening purposes in the routine infertility eva...

The unilateral agenesis and/or absence of ipsilateral fallopian tube and ovary (adnexa) is rare and rarely described in the literature. The esteemed incidence is 1:11.240 [1,3]. The etiology is not clear: ipsilateral tubal and ovarian absence could be caused by the torsion of ovarian peduncle before birth or before puberty [2,3]. Adnexa agenesis is always associated to uterine and to urinary ap...

We reviewed the place of tubal surgery in the era of assisted reproductive technology. Reversal of tubal ligation is one of the main indications for tubal microsurgery. Adhesiolysis has the best results if the adhesion is the only factor responsible for infertility. There are no differences between adhesiolysis by laparoscopy or by laparotomy, and so laparoscopy must be preferred. Proximal tuba...

BACKGROUND The aim of tubal testing is to identify women with bilateral tubal pathology in a timely manner, so they can be treated with IVF or tubal surgery. At present, it is unclear for which women early tubal testing is indicated, and in whom it can be deferred. METHODS Data on 3716 women who underwent tubal patency testing as a part of their routine fertility workup were used to relate el...

Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) infection is a common cause of tubal factor infertility, and is considered a contraindication for tubal surgery. In vitro fertilization with embryo transfer (IVF/ET) is the most widely used treatment for tubal factor infertility, including that caused by CT infection. Falloposcopy to re-canalize occluded tubes may also be useful therapeutically. It is unclear, however...
